The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time

Chapter 321: Various Notions

Although Ren Yuan's words were full of sincerity, however, right now, Shao Cheng couldn't fully concentrate on the deep meaning of it since the thought of Ren Yuan learning about his previous life honestly terrified him and caused great turmoil in his mind.

He only managed to slightly calm down after hearing that the man wasn't able to hear a single word of what he had spoken with the young Jiayi who was obviously doing something behind his back.

Ah I misjudged the situation I should have known that person wouldn't easily behave the way I wanted to...

"Heh"

Shao Cheng's lip slowly spread into a smile, which wasn't the usual gentle one but it was completely chilling while the usually cold and indifferent sapphire eyes burned with anger. And such a change of expression caused the talking Ren Yuan who wanted to teach him an important lesson in life to slowly quiet down.

Oh I seemed to have underestimated the situation with the young High Priestess.

At that moment, Ren Yuan understood that the discussion between this young man and that young woman was beyond his assumption.

It was also because of grasping how extremely important and serious it was that Ren Yuan inwardly narrowed his eyes while the tip of his tongue licked the inside of his mouth as various ideas and thoughts flash in his mind.

Now then how should I figure out what Whitey discussed with that young woman?

While Ren Yuan was busy thinking of a plan on how to know what was really going on, all Shao Cheng wanted to do right now was to rush to the young Jiayi and strangle her fragile neck.

She should know from the memories that Ren Yuan is my bottom line!

Taking a deep breath, Shao Cheng forcefully suppressed the rage in his heart, and completely showed an expressionless face, which was different from his usual cold and indifferent expression.

This time, it was completely empty, in which there wasn't a single emotion that could be seen.

"Let's go back."

Or else, I won't be able to stop myself from causing unreasonable acts.

Shao Cheng quickly stopped Ren Yuan from speaking another word the moment he saw the man opening his mouth while the pair of charming eyebrows wrinkled with unexplainable expressions on his face.

"I can't think straight right now."

So, let's talk again when my mind isn't in turmoil, alright?

Shao Cheng didn't want to take a chance regarding his previous life experience, especially when it concerned Ren Yuan.

Although it was uncomfortable and bitter to be the only person who remembered everything.

Nonetheless, he preferred for Ren Yuan to remain ignorant about how the two of them had been, never remembering how he treated him so harshly, ruthlessly, and cruelly.

How Shao Cheng let him live a life of sadness and loneliness.

What their ending had been, and how he had remained ignorant about his overwhelming emotions, only learning about it after turning into a spirit after he died.

Rather than Shao Cheng feeling comfort that Ren Yuan knew and understood the second life the two of them lived, he would absolutely choose to endure and persist in his new life.

Especially when no matter how strong and firm a person's will is, he couldn't gamble the fact that Ren Yuan wouldn't be affected if he ever remembered the lives they already experienced.

After all, just remembering two lifetimes of memories already affected Shao Cheng's mentality, which is half-insane or broken, followed by overwhelming tiredness.

If there are no special promises, lingering sentiments, and affections, fixing the previous life mistakes then Shao Cheng would have preferred to rest in peace, completely forgetting everything, and never living another life with memories intact.

So, he couldn't take even a single risk when it comes to Ren Yuan's situation.

Ren Yuan you don't have to remember those painful moments 

Shao Cheng walking ahead with Ren Yuan following him from behind slowly calmed down his chaotic emotions and turbulent mind.

At the same time, the two of them walked toward the prepared courtyard without speaking a single word to each other.

And when Shao Cheng stood in the open door, blocking Ren Yuan from coming inside, completely showing the attitude of wanting to be left alone, he couldn't help but finally let out a few words with his back turned after a few seconds of silence.

"In the next few days you are free to do whatever you want. I'll be staying inside most of the time."

No matter what I feel, I'll deal with what young Jiayi had done behind my back after the purification.

Shao Cheng still understood to take care of his completely paralyzed left arm even if all he wanted to do was strangle the delicate neck of the person who was testing his bottom line.

"Ok, don't worry, Whitey, I'll quietly climb your bed when I come to sleep with you tonight."

Ah, I'm really a thoughtful and understanding person, I'm sure Whitey is impressed.

Ren Yuan nodded his head, knowing fully well that there was a certain time to be stubborn and annoying. Especially when the young man can be extremely scary when truly angry, just look at the end result of those who went against or tried to harm him in the past.

There was an entire family that was massacred.

Malicious and perverted relatives were completely cut off, and imprisoned, destroying their future.

Another powerful family was demoted in official and aristocratic rank with their reputation destroyed and virtuous questions.

And then, there were also schemes and plots that Whitey was definitely doing in the dark, just waiting to lure and trap the enemies eyeing them in the dark in a devastating nightmare.

Besides, the most important part was, what would Ren Yuan do if Whitey stopped cooking his favorite snacks for a long time? There were also countless delicious foods that he hadn't even managed to taste yet.

While someone remembered the various recipes that had been written in the Shao residence study room of a certain person, Shao Cheng's lips showed a wry smile behind the silver mask because Ren Yuan was the calmest one between them.

Calm enough to remember his usual playful, annoying, and unreasonable self, and yet, I became a wreck just after seeing that person again in this life.

Shao Cheng couldn't stop the fondness that slowly emerged from his heart after perceiving that Ren Yuan is trying to ease the strange atmosphere around them.

I thought I could handle it But, it seems that I still underestimate how affected I could get, huh...

After calming the chaotic mood, Shao Cheng nodded his head in acceptance of Ren Yuan's words, completely ignoring how it sounded wrong or more likely, he had already resigned about their ambiguous situation that continued to go wrong but he could no longer stop it.

"It's not like I can stop you from climbing my bed."

Although you have been surprisingly obedient and tame sometimes, I won't ever forget the important facts that I have learned about you in my previous life.

Wild and completely unreasonable, just as I am extremely stubborn to the point of obstination, you are also the kind of person who won't listen to anyone and would do whatever you want without restraint and hesitation.

"I'll see you tonight."

Amidst the sound of the door gently closing after the easily misunderstood words softly spoken, Ren Yuan's pupils quickly flashed a chilling look while the familiar grin on his face slowly disappeared as he remained standing still in front of the closed door with an emotionless expression.

After a few more seconds, he quickly disappeared after sensing that there were no people in the surrounding area. And when he arrived in a quiet place, where he had a clear view of the highest Temple on top of Sacred Mountain, a dangerous light flashed in his eyes.

"... You shouldn't have agitated and upset my Whitey."

Ren Yuan felt that his chest was about to suffocate while remembering the suppressed desperate pleading and shaking hands of the young man just a while ago. Especially the almost sticky and clingy appearance, which was completely different from how the young man usually acted.

"Whitey is mine."

My only special friend in the entire world.

"I am the only one allowed to deeply affect him like that."

Although, I prefer the beautiful smile being shown more specifically toward me.

"Don't worry, your Brother Yuan will make sure to deal with the people who upset you."

Although Ren Yuan couldn't completely deal with the people in the Sacred Mountain, especially after the long years of history they had in the Chang Empire. However, he could still make annoying trouble once in a while.

"I have decided"

It's time to seriously reach deeper into this place too.

After finally deciding about how to handle the Sacred Mountain, especially the special people in it, Ren Yuan displayed a devilish smile while giving one last glance at the Temple where the High Priestess and the next high Priestess usually resided before leaving with a certain goal in mind.

While the Emperor, still secretly residing in the Sacred Mountain, had just received a report from his dark guards concerning the drowning incident of the six Imperial Princes.

At the same time, the Emperor also remembered the sudden change of look in the present High Priestess' eyes, which reflected the ambitions and greed that she was unable to hide after being informed of his secret visit to the Sacred Mountain.

It was after he had a secret meeting with the young Priestess.

"... Ah, I can already imagine the overwhelming headache I'll be facing in the future"
